Press Release
Lately, Lucas Dupuy has been particularly preoccupied by the field of fractal geometry, that mathematical concept that exists under the banners of measure theory and chaos theory. Encompassing endlessly repeating, self-similar geometric shapes and patterns of successively smaller scales – sometimes referred to as expanding or unfolding symmetry – fractals occur with surprising frequency in nature and are lauded for both their aesthetic appeal and practical applications. A simple fractal tree can be drawn by continuously bifurcating a single starting stem that doubles into two branches, then four, eight, sixteen, then 32, ad infinitum. Mathematicians have been pushing the non-existent boundaries of the fractal field for over a century, each presenting their own patented, pleasingly pro-portionate and reliably repeatable models – The Mandelbrot set, the Menger sponge, the Sierpiński carpet, even the Koch snowflake. Fractal patterns are observable within algae, DNA, dust grains, river…
